How can I specify in the schematic different wire widths or net classes for a single net?
The only way I know is to change wire width on the board after it has been routed. The idea behind it is a circuit with a SMPS where the large current power tracks must be wide, but there is no need and also no room on the board to use the same track width for the low current signal lines of the ssame net. When one separates the high- and low-current parts of the power lines in two nets, at the moment the two nets are connected on the schematic a single net class must be chosen.
